Virginia Community College System

Company Description

The Virginia Community College System is widely regarded as one of the leading community college systems in the nation serving over 375,000 students in credit courses and workforce training programs at our 23 colleges on 40 campuses. Our colleges are held in high esteem by all of our constituencies to include students, parents, citizens, the business community, the legislature, and the governor. The transfer environment in the Commonwealth is second-to-none due to System-led efforts that secured state-wide guaranteed admissions and transfer to four-year institutions. During the tenure of our strategic plan, Dateline 2009, we have increased enrollment by over 15%, more than doubled the number of dual enrollment students served, doubled the number of transfer students, nearly doubled the number of businesses served by workforce development services, and doubled the amount of external funds in our collective endowments. We also have developed game-changing technology tools such as the Virginia Education Wizard. Our successes have been made possible by our exceptional faculty, the noteworthy leadership at each of our colleges, and our Chancellor—a community college graduate, and national thought leader on community college education.
